Powell And The Fed Has GIVEN UP On 2% Inflation Target
The Federal Reserve has quietly removed its long-standing 2% inflation target. For decades, that number was the bedrock of monetary policy — but not anymore. In this episode, I break down exactly what Jerome Powell said at his latest press conference, how the Fed’s language shifted from a hard target to an “aspiration,” and why this marks a profound dovish pivot. After more than 50 months without hitting 2%, Powell has finally waved the white flag. I explain what this means for inflation, interest rates, and investors. 0:00 Intro0:42 Federal Reserve abandons 2% inflation target7:01 Is AI in bubble trouble?11:41 Jeff Bezos has a better idea than Forbes net worth listPomp writes a daily letter to over 265,000+ investors about business, technology, and finance.

Rate Cuts Are Coming And Markets Are About To RIP
At last, Jerome "Too Late" Powell is signaling rate cuts for September. After months of resisting, the Fed is finally bending — and markets exploded on the news.

The Truth About “Overvalued” Stocks And The Massive Gains Ahead
Retail investors are piling into stocks while institutions are selling — and it all comes down to how each side views valuations. Wall Street sees "expensive" multiples, but retail is focused on the fundamentals, and the fundamentals are EXPLODING. Facebook just posted 36% net income growth on a $2 trillion market cap, Palantir is freezing headcount while growing revenue with AI, and companies across the board are becoming more efficient than ever.

Why The Meme-ification of Investing Is Here To Stay
Meme stocks aren't just for GameStop and AMC anymore — it’s the core of the entire market. As we discuss in this episode, every stock has been meme-ified, even relics like Berkshire Hathaway. Investors pay premiums not just for fundamentals, but for narratives, brand, and belief — and that’s not changing anytime soon. Allow me to explain the meme-ification of markets and society as a whole.0:00 Intro0:44 Everything is speculation but don't blame speculators5:05 JP Morgan study shows how much the average investor underperforms5:42 Youth unemployment is becoming a generational crisis7:14 Humanoid robots do laundry nowListen to From the Desk of Anthony Pompliano on:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/from-the-desk-of-anthony-pompliano/id1819778503Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1THAGnR1Xt1WDUn1CCTh1DPomp writes a daily letter to over 265,000+ investors about business, technology, and finance.

Is the US Treasury About To Start Buying Bitcoin?
To buy or not to buy Bitcoin — that is the question. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent first said they would NOT be buying new Bitcoin for the strategic reserve, but when backlash ensued, he quickly backpedaled. So what's going on?

Stocks Have Surpassed Dot-Com Bubble Highs… And That’s BULLISH
The U.S. stock market is now valued at nearly twice the size of the entire American economy — even more stretched than it was at the peak of the dot-com bubble in 2000. Back then, valuations were inflated by a frenzy of unproven tech companies and sky-high expectations that eventually collapsed. Today looks very different. The biggest U.S. companies are profitable, globally dominant, and pulling in capital from investors around the world. In this episode, we break down why this historic valuation gap isn’t necessarily bearish, what’s driving it, and why expensive stocks can still keep running higher.0:00 Intro0:48 The stock market is more overhauled than it was at the height of the dot com bubble3:26 Chipotle, CABA, and SweetGreen are all struggling 5:15 Meet 15-year-old wonderkid investor Amir FischerFrom the Desk of Anthony Pompliano on Youtube: https://youtu.be/BWg7JDopDfUPomp writes a daily letter to over 265,000+ investors about business, technology, and finance.

Market Volatility Is Coming… And So Are The BIG Gains
The VIX is at its lowest level of 2025 — but ultra-low volatility never lasts. When it breaks, markets tend to see their sharpest moves, and I expect this time will be no different. With rate cuts on the horizon, I’m betting those swings will tilt to the upside, setting the stage for a much more exciting market in the months ahead.0:00 Intro0:44 Volatility is coming... are you ready?2:08 Tariff revenue could end up being 1% of GDP3:14 Do NOT fight technological innovation4:56 Interview with Tanvi Ratna about geopolitics Listen to From the Desk of Anthony Pompliano on:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/from-the-desk-of-anthony-pompliano/id1819778503Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1THAGnR1Xt1WDUn1CCTh1DPomp writes a daily letter to over 265,000+ investors about business, technology, and finance.
